Lucky Leitrim man thought he had won €5K - actually won more than €1m

There was no Monday morning blues in the National Lottery winners’ room this morning as a EuroMillions Raffle prize winner from Leitrim collected his €1,005,000 jackpot from 10 days ago.

The Leitrim man, who wishes to keep his win private, purchased his ‘White Ticket’ Quick Pick on the day of the draw - Friday, February 17 - at Newtowngore Post Office in Leitrim.
